I did a quick search but I don't think anyone's put this up yet. Mods, feel free to lock this up if it's been mentioned already.

Sarah Palin probably shot whoever screens her calls

Two radio DJs from Quebec, who are famous for pulling prank calls, somehow managed to get a hold of Sarah Palin on Saturday and convinced her she was talking to French President Nicolas Sarkozy. And she fucking fell for it. For the record, that is really, no joke, Sarah Palin on the line. Her campaign handlers are obviously pissed but, like idiots, confirmed the interview took place.

Palin camp responds to spoof: 'C'est la vie'

Sarah Palin's campaign issued an "mildly amused" response to having joined Jacques Chirac and Nicolas Sarkozy in having been the victim of a prank by a pair of French-Canadian comedians who impersonated Sarkozy on a call with the Alaska governor.

The prankster talked hunting ("I just love killing those animals."), and Palin said she was a "careful" shot in contrast to Dick Cheney. He also made a reference she appeared to miss to a porn movie in the conversation, which can be heard here and here. He said he could see Belgium from his house, described "my special American adviser Johny Halliday," a French singer, and referred to Canadian singer Stef Carse as Canada's prime minister, as Palin continued the conversation until he explained it was a prank.

"Gov. Palin received a phone call on Saturday from a French Canadian talk show host claiming to be French President Nicholas Sarkozy," emailed spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt. "Gov. Palin was mildly amused to learn that she had joined the ranks of heads of state, including President Sarkozy, and other celebrities in being targeted by these pranksters. C'est la vie."

Palin didn't say anything particularly compromising in the call, and indeed, wouldn't take the bait when "Sarkozy" said he saw her as a president.

"Maybe in eight years," she said.

It's unclear whether she suspected it was a prank as the call grew increasingly absurd.

The comedian ended the call with a plug for Obama and a joke about McCain.

UPDATE: Faster loading audio is here. The item is updated a bit for clarity and because it took me a moment to figure out who Stef Carse is.
